Birth without Violence revolutionised the way we perceive the
process of birth, urging us to consider birth from the infant's
point of view. Why must a child emerge from the quiet darkness of
the womb into a blaze of blinding light and loud voices? Why must
an infant take its first breath in terror, hanging upside down as
its vulnerable spine is jerked straight? Why must the infant be
separated from its mother after spending nine months inside her
nourishing body? Frederick Leboyer's Birth Without Violence is one
of the milestones in the history of humanizing childbirth. It was
the first book to express what mothers have always known: babies
are born complete human beings with the ability to experience a
full range of emotions. This Pinter & Martin edition is the
definitive edition, published exactly how the author intended it.
In matchless prose and stunning photos, Frederick Leboyer discusses
the importance and beauty of yoga for pregnant women. He shows how
they can use yoga to move toward healthy and joyous childbearing
and how the health benefits will far outlast the birthing
process--for both mother and child. 100 photos.
